— We present algorithms to detect and precisely localize curbs and stairways for autonomous navigation. These algorithms combine brightness information (in the form of edgels) wi...
Off-road autonomous navigation is one of the most difficult automation challenges from the point of view of constraints on mobility, speed of motion, lack of environmental structur...
Planning for real robots to act in dynamic and uncertain environments is a challenging problem. A complete model of the world is not viable and an integration of deliberation and ...
